What does this mean?
My traditional understanding: You give me the greatest earthly love I have ever known and ever will know.
A thought that is wonderful and true!
But it hit me this morning that it can mean more than that; it means that I have shared and will share every part of my life with you. I will not keep things from you, even when I am afraid or ashamed to admit them to you (and perhaps in doing so admit them to myself). I will give my life to you joyously, without apprehension or doubt. And I will do this because you are the love of my life - you love every part of who I have been, am, and shall become. Every aspect of my life is yours and you take it - me - with a full and open heart.
There is only one other love like this. May we always strive to be a reflection of such divine Love. For we are not two, but three - One has brought the other two together.
Love of my life, I love you.
